How one stupid anti EV shill that can't do math put it

> 50% of lifetime CO2 emissions from an electric car come from the energy used to produce the car. This compares unfavorably with the manufacture of a gasoline-powered car which accounts for 17% of the car’s lifetime CO2 emissions.

Which means EV is 60,000 lifetime pounds of CO2 emissions

And gasoline is 82,353 lifetime pounds of CO2 emissions
